I have clocked in more than 1000 posts; so I kinda feel like I know the forum a little bit more that my early days..

With that thought in mind..

I have been thinking about Linux again...(yes, I am a Linuxaholic...)..

Can I re~ask for a Mac / Linux forum...?

Some of us...are a little nutz about that cute little Penguin.

In fact, some of the more looney ones, (like me, Fox, Dungeon, Ghosty and Hackers...where are you Hacks...? ) may actually believe that Linux has a future in relation to Macs specifically, and PC's in general..

Good idea, if you ask on some Linux forums you can get flamed to hell, we actually read a post on a Fedora forum at SILUG once where it got kind of interesting._________________"You must control your future by taking command of your present, and fixing and learning from your past."

I might add that a new PowerPC Linux website/forum (PPCLinux.info) started with 123macmini as a model community it is striving to emulate, so the least we could do is have a little Linux forum on our own.

My only potential concern is whether separating it will keep others of our group from reading it and maybe getting interested. I really enjoy getiing new participants in our Linux threads. I wonder whether some of our more recent participants were originally interested in Windows on BootCamp and then got interested in Linux reading our posts there. Anyone care to comment?

Fox.

To be honest, I have already registered a site called DistroMac.com, but it is moribund at the moment.

The name is spun out of the title : DistroWatch.com, which is the last word in relation to all things Linux.

Right now, I haven't got the brains, the time, or the cash to set up a forum.

But if anyone is interested in helping out, I would be more than happy to listen to proposals.

Oops, obviously my last post was not clear. I was not looking for an off-site Linux forum; I was referring to the idea of spinning off a Linux forum here on 123macmini from the BootCamp forum, as you requested, aqua. I don't know what else to call it other than a "forum" because "topic" seems to refer to a particular post and the responses for it (e.g., "topic review" on the site lists the whole thread)._________________Mini 1 (2012): 2.3 ghz Core i7; 10 gb RAM, Corsair 240gb SSD, 500 gb Seagate XT

Sorry Fox,

I did misunderstand you.

While I have had that site of mine registered for a while now, I would rather keep it in house, here in our beloved 123 forums...
